May 6th, 2021 - A percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is widely performed for acute coronary syndromes or chronic coronary syndromes. Periprocedural stroke is a clinically significant complication during PCI. The incidence of cerebrovascular events (CVEs) af...

May 5th, 2021 - Asymptomatic carotid stenosis (ACS) due to atherosclerosis is a risk factor for ipsilateral ischemic cerebrovascular events and cognitive impairment. The prognosis of ACS has improved over the past 4 decades due largely to improvements in medical ...

Apr 26th, 2021 - Transradial (TR) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a preferable PCI route. The complication difference between TR and TF approaches is controversial. PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane databases were queried for PCI outcomes of TR TF in ST...

Apr 26th, 2021 - Cancer and cancer therapies have the potential to affect the nervous system in a host of different ways. Cerebral edema, increased intracranial pressure, cerebrovascular events, status epilepticus, and epidural spinal cord compression are among th...

Apr 17th, 2021 - Carotid artery stenosis is a determinant factor accused for cerebrovascular events, estimated to be the cause of 10-20% of all ischemic strokes. Trans-cervical carotid artery revascularization (TCAR) has been offered as an alternative to transfemo...

Sep 27th, 2019 - BACKGROUND Long-term outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with contemporary drug-eluting stents, as compared with coronary-artery bypass grafting (CABG), in patients with left main coronary artery disease are not clearly establi...

Jul 12th, 2018 - Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is a manifestation of atherosclerosis in the lower limbs. It can impair walking and, in severe cases, can lead to tissue loss, infection, and amputation. In addition to morbidity directly caused by PAD, patients wit...

Jun 24th, 2010 - Herein, we present the European Society for Vascular Surgery Guidelines pertinent to the secondary prevention of cerebrovascular events in patients with carotid artery stenosis including lipid lowering therapy, antiplatelet therapy and other risk ...

Feb 11th, 2021 - NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Cancer patients who sustain a heart attack were less likely than non-cancer patients to be treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in a retrospective study. The authors say PCI is "underutilized" in cancer...

Jan 10th, 2021 - Takeaway Controlled hypertension (systolic blood pressure [BP] <140 mmHg and diastolic BP <90 mmHg) was associated with an increased risk of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs) vs normotension.

Jan 6th, 2021 - A large Swedish observational study suggests that patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) who develop advanced illness should continue taking a renin-angiotensin system (RAS) inhibitor — an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) or angiotensin-conv...

Nov 4th, 2020 - In order for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) to shine compared with meds alone in patients with type-2 diabetes and stable coronary disease (CAD), it needs help from aggressive control of low-density-lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels...
